gpm-mouse-test(8) System Manager's Manual gpm-mouse-test(8)
NAME
gpm-mouse-test - a tool for determining mouse type and device it's at-
tached to.
SYNTAX
gpm-mouse-test [ device ... ]
DESCRIPTION
This experimental and incomplete application tries to help in detecting
which protocol does your mouse speak. It is able to detect MouseMan de-
vices, and to choose between `-t ms' (three-buttons aware) and `-t
bare' old two-buttons-only serial mice.
BUGS
I know the application is buggy, but I only own one mouse device. If
you are interested in this application, just call me and awake me from
my laziness.
OPTIONS
device [ device ... ]
Check this device for a mouse. If no devices are listed, gpm-mouse-
test will try all possible devices.
